				I was told that the 2 stroke Pennzoil has about a one year shelf  life for 
 use in a Rotax. You can tell if the oil is old because the sides of the 
 plastic bottles will cave in a little. Has anyone heard of this?
 
 Thanks

            Seems the bottles  would cave in, in cool weather,and bulge out in warm weather. Does it have  something to do with the temperature of the oil when it is bottled. Im sure heat  and cold would effect the bottle no matter how old. Or am I on the wrong track.  What is age supposed to do to it ?  Why dont they have a notice of the  shelf life on it?

				I guess I better go check my Crown Royal bottle to make sure it hasn't caved in Yet don't want that shelf life expiring on me, eh 
  I wouldn't think any oil would expire no more than My Crown Royal would don't worry about it use it if you got it or send it to me I'll use it and send you the results

				I've got half a case that is slightly over 2 years old. Didn't see any
 caving. And like the Crown Royal, looks like it is aging quite nicely.

				Watch out and don't get too close to the Crown  Royal for too long at one time! It has been know to give one the "blue bag  flu"
